Those of you who took Chem 391A last semester will recognize this protein from the presentation of research proposal. Those of you who aren't lame-faces, that is.

This green link shows the alpha helices of this protein as green ribbons. For useful contrast, everything else is shown as wireframe in whatever lame default colors they were in.
